He pronounced jimenez, GYM-enez. Not all runners get into the sport because they are smart kids who can't do anything else athletic, I guess.
DAMN Jeff See is just running thangs lately. what was that? 13:42?
Anybody near the Stanford /announcer - at least tell him/text him/email him to read off some splits. Otherwise he is useless. You can hear the Flotrack dudes in the background if you turn it w-a-a-ay up.
what is up with the trash can band?
for real, someone tackle that guy
I guess the CBS feed is trying to give you the "Be There" experience with the drums???
Wow - horrible coverage from a pay-per-view service. I am tuning out and will wait until it is on flotrack.
Glad I'm not paying for this. I'd be really pissed at the value of this broadcast. I can live with the video, but I agree that the announcer is worse than useless. He is not even master of the obvious.
Horrible coverage. The feed is bad and the announcer is the worst I've ever seen/heard. He didn't say a single word during the entire 1st men's 5k, 1st time I've seen a guy take a lunch break during a telecast! Thanks to the Letsrunner that posted the free code, I would be pissed if I paid $10 for this crap.
Now he's taking another snack break??? A bathroom break? Sure NOTHING happens the first 15 laps of a 10k. Might as well just broadcast the last quarter of that Cavs-Celtics game today. Boy - if they want people to pay for this they are about 5 years away.
I suggest everyone email those responsible for the coverage that are unsatisfiedd. I for one am. :(
No splits, no sound, they skip parts, no commentary, just the announcer (who adds some obvious fact like "now so-in-so has taken the lead").
Well you can tell it's just students who are picking up a few bucks. Obviously you can't have professional announcers at EVERY meet in America but if you are going to pay for it and you are going for records - maybe you can find someone - a coach, something. Coaches can always use a few bucks!
Go Anthony Famington!
"we are 100 meters in and that means we are 1% done with this 10k"
How in the hell did these kids get into Stanford?
"1 lap down, 23 to go"
Just keeps saying that "Media you have selected is currently unavailable" help me...time is running out.
"Rupp still in 3rd but trying to make a push."
[After 1200.]
Alistair Craig isn't an American either.
Why can't we get a Letsrun regular message board poster to commentate for these kids just so we can actually bare to listen to this.
you can hear the flotrack guys laughing at everything these kids are saying.
Did anyone else hear the kid trying to pronounce Bekele's name. Granted that is tough to say, but its safe to say these guys had better not be communications majors, because no one in their right mind would fire them after hearing this commentary.
"galen's rupp effort"
Is there a rule against attaching a helium balloon to yourself while running a road race?
Am I living in the twilight zone? The Boston Marathon weather was terrible!
How rare is it to run a sub 5 minute mile AND bench press 225?
Jakob Ingebrigtsen has a 1989 Ferrari 348 GTB and he's just put in paperwork to upgrade it
Move over Mark Coogan, Rojo and John Kellogg share their 3 favorite mile workouts
Mark Coogan says that if you could only do 3 workouts as a 1500m runner you should do these
